Happy Halluino! 🎃 @aluino.blacksky.app · 13d

Added alt text with full quote.

“When I see that, I worry that they might face serious trouble down the line if they don't take it more seriously.”

Hirohiko Araki addresses Al art in his latest book:
"Recently, I came across a drawing that perfectly mimicked my art style. I thought 'I don't remember drawing this' only to find out it was Al, I was shocked, this is truly evil and a tool for scammers"

In this post there is a photo of Hirohiko Araki, creator of Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure next to Giorno from the series.

By Hirohiko Araki. It’s titled “Today’s World of Con Artists” and it reads: Speaking about 'societal evils, I think that as Al continues to spread throughout society, we're going to see an increasingly shady world filled with scammers exploiting it. Recently, I came across a drawing and thought, "This is something I drew, right?" I was shocked to find out it was actually created by Al. When I draw manga, I add subtle, personal elements that make the work uniquely mine. But this Al-generated piece even mimicked details like the way I draw eyelashes, so precisely that it was almost impossible to tell it apart from my work. If it were based on recent drawings, I'd know right away, "No, I didn't draw this." On the other hand, I honestly wouldn't be able to tell the difference if it were done with my art from about ten years ago, when my memory of it would be a little hazy. The more Al advances, the more this kind of thing will happen.
Art reflects the times, and manga is one example of that. Seeing this world of con artists appear in manga could very well mean that we're headed for a future world dominated by fraudsters. This type of 'evil' in today's age will undoubtedly end up impacting manga down the line.
Copyright infringement by Al is also a 'villain' that we manga artists must face. The extreme scenario is that Al-generated fakes might start being accepted as the "real thing," and even if we try to protect our work, these counterfeits are becoming so accurate and sophisticated that it's no longer a fight an individual can win. Having some kind of laws would probably be the only way to regulate this. However, because we're dealing with a world of con artists, there's also a very real possibility that laws favoring them will appear before we know it. Personally, I entrust my copyright management to Shueisha, but some manga artists are lax in managing their copyrights, leading to others using their artwork without permission or even leaking original drawings.

I only recently learned that rabbits crave destruction and one form of enrichment for them is just giving them things to tear apart, knock over, and destroy.

I would say yall are here for the smut but the SFW stuff does better. Which is good because there's so much grit in my stories that I will continue to not move to another account because that's what I vibe with. I know my niche. I'm not gonna strategize my joy away and neither should you uwu

MY ADVICE FOR NEW FURRIES REMAINS THE SAME: DONT DO ANYTHING YOU DONT REALLY FEEL LIKE DOING JUST FOR THE SAKE OF TRYING TO IMPRESS ANYONE OR FIT IN. THERES ALWAYS MORE PEOPLE THAT WILL LIKE YOU FOR YOU THAN YOU THINK. DONT FEEL BAD TO SAY NO. AND KEEP THE FRIENDS YOU HAVE CLOSE!

SCREEN ACT:
-full age verification. (biometric scans, ID uploads, background checks)

-Deeply unsafe for personal and data privacy. Security/data breaches are rampant, and uploading so much sensitive data to every single we site is just asking for mass ID theft.

-id verification is much, much harder on small websites than larger ones, creating a chilling effect and stifling speech for anyone that isnt a massive corporation

-draw comparison to UK's OSA [online safety act] and the backlash it is receiving

KOSA:
-creates "duty of care,” meaning that tech companies and platform giants would be required to take steps to prevent potentially harmful encounters, such as posts about eating disorders and instances of online bullying, from impacting minors.

-who gets to decide what is or is not "unsafe for minors"? Especially under the current administration

-it will block access to important info minors could use to keep themselves safe or advocate for themselves. Ex: sex ed.

-the vague nature of the bill will almost certainly be used to target LGBT content under the guise of "protecting children"

I wanted to vent but not really, this is what came out. I spent most of the time playing with strokes of color and it had an effect I really like~

It's been a hard few days. Thank you for letting me spend them on your couch.

Timelapse in the thread!

What waking up in the evening on your friend's couch after forgetting to take off your makeup looks like, this colored sketch of Ziel, a non-binary anthro white rabbit oc, staring at the viewer with messy fur, and makeup smeared on the pillow.

The way you do it right now makes me miss the old tarot deck i had. It's the kind of scratchy that makes me think of macabre illustrations and I think that suits your style very well

Sorry if it's not the intention but I like it a whole lot owo
I look forward to learning more about Velera tooo~

Oh, oh I -like- this.

If you want to switch gears on hassling the Payment Processors, take a page out of the (American) insurance industry by being a 'diligent customer' and calling the company ahead of time to confirm Prior Authorization. Be polite, but very confused when they insist you stop. 😇

Make sure to call Visa before making any purchase and ask if it would bring them disrepute, just to be safe.

Foto meme de um tipo de efeito dominó em que as peças ficam gradativamente maiores, um homem esta prestes a derrubar a peça menor onde o texto diz em inglês "learning to draw" (aprendendo a desenhar) e na peça maior no final da fileira o texto diz "everybody knowing what your fetishes are" (todo mundo descobrindo quais seus fetiches são).

Gonna re-embrace all the weird things I was excited for. Still BDSM, Latex, Monsters, and Size Difference. But now also the slime, tentacles, mindbreaking, and ovi that I have missed~ do a bit of exploring, I have ideasss

All of this was only a matter of time...

A friend linked me a sea bunny video and, one thing lead to another, so I'm still playing around a bit but it sparks so much joyyy

What if same ( and more ) content but sea bunny?
[ #furryart #characterdesign #oc #nsfw #xxxziel ]

Quick character design sketches of two different versions of a character; one kemonomimi and one anthropomorphic version of a sea bunny character with purple slime elements. It shows how the AFAB character can grow a slime dick. There is a detail doodle of the open tail with a glob of slime in the center. The doodle is surrounded by messy doodles of drippy purple tentacles.
The art is quick, sketchy, and unfinished, I'm a chibi style.

No timelapse because I changed machines in the time it took me to finish this for @ranoa.art uwu;
[ #furryart #nsfw #oc #xxxziel ]

A finished, full colored piece with the femboy shark Auri and the nonbinary rabbit Ziel, where ziel is safely tucked away under auri's hyperdick with its face pressed into Auri's nuts.
It is set in a vague setting with Ziel on their knees in front of Auri while Auri sits on a non-descript ledge. The background has a blue sky with subtle clouds.
The shading is purple, and there is minimal lighting.
